Making Strides Against Breast Cancer

The FA participates in Making Strides Against Breast Cancer every year. We are one of the many locals of NYSUT, which is a flagship sponsor of Making Strides, that organize a local NYSUT team. TEAM FA participates in the Making Strides Eastern Long Island walk, which usually occurs on a Sunday in October. Faculty, staff, and students are encouraged to participate.

TEAM FA participants not only make the walk at the SCCC Eastern Campus, they conduct fundraising and awareness raising for this worthy cause as well. Annually the team raises between $1,000 to $1,500, and here are just a few of the articles written about the event: 

• In honor of women by EC rep Joan Cook
• Why should we make strides anyway? by FA officer Cynthia Eaton

To join TEAM FA as a walker or as a donator, please contact the FA for information!
